BBC I Has constant covererge of the Olimpics and if you want to see the News you have to use Satalite or Freeview, but when you change over to th BBC News all you get is the Olimpics.
I for one am not interested in them, the BBC have used BBC 1 to cover the events, so why dominate their other channels which is supposed to be for News with the same rubbish as BBC 1 are broadcasting.
Thanks

On the other hand, I'm enjoying the Olympics. We both pay our licence fee (well, I know i do) so you can't have it all your own way ;)
